Not much powder, I can’t recall now but fill the hollowed out and wax paper but I’ll read all notes if N when.
I was arrow hunting and the bluff line runs NW to SE and this spot sticks out to the south quite a ways. I get there and the one side looks like “Omaha beach” I mean blowd up. Not lightening, earthquake? ThN I found slug? Rifled slug? No wonder they could hit anything?(I’m dreaming) I’m North of river but to the south and west is chimney rock on the Oregon Trail the cavalry shot the top of it off once upon a time, I thought I found a target practice spot it not too far from a historic Calverly camp.
The next day I’m headed to ft Laramie to research, I happen to see land owner at grocery store and tell him all about, he say oh yea, the local welding shop guy used to have cannon and sure enough still did, I bugged about getting to fire myself but it never happened, yet.
